Book Description
This former political insider delivers a page-turning political conspiracy thriller that delves right to the heart of the UK establishment. "A realistic contemporary thriller that has you gripped from the first page. A well written, deftly crafted novel set in the chaos of Westminster just after the departure of Boris Johnson, by someone who knows parliament and government from the inside. " John Rentoul - The Independent "It's a turbo-charged rollercoaster ride through the corridors of power. Betrayal, murder, sex and intrigue. This book has got it all." Mike Graham - Presente, talkRADIO Success The Prime Minister is on borrowed time. Scandal His successor lies in wait. Secrecy But who else has their eyes on the prize? The suicide of a cabinet ministers brother, unable to face the fallout of an illegal finance deal gone bad that he had organised sets in trail a series of events that reach into the very heart of government, inside No 10 Downing Street itself and threatening the very survival of the government at a crucial time for the United Kingdom Secretary of State James Cleaver's shock and grief at the death of his brother is quickly overcome by the more urgent matter of making sure that no one can follow the fraudulent money trail that he is fully implicated in, and he's relying on Karen, Chief of Staff to the already doomed Prime Minister and seeming kingmaker, with whom he's having an affair. Together they plot James's accession to the top job, but there is a price to pay, over turning the decision of the British people to leave the European Union and seek once again "ever closer union" with Brussels. For the top job this is a betrayal James Cleaver is prepared to countenance only because his squalid financial arrangements will stay buried that way. Nothing must stop him fulfilling his ambition. But following the sudden death of her close friend and Downing Street political aide, journalist Beth Anderson is determined to find out who killed him and why and the finger of blame points to Cleaver, but even she will end up compromised as she realises she is up against more than even one of the most ruthlessly ambitious politicians ever to stalk the corridors of power. Not everything is as it seems and the future of the government and the fate of the United Kingdom depends on who will win in this jostle of fatal ambition? The man who's devoted his life to take the prize - or the woman set out to destroy him. What begins as a betrayal, leaves many victims in its wake . . . Written by former MP Nick de Bois who's been there first hand at the highest levels of government and in the heart of the establishment, this story asks not just Who is really pulling the strings? But Who is really in charge?
